Tom Lane f5297bdfe4 Refer to the default foreign key match style as MATCH SIMPLE internally.
Previously we followed the SQL92 wording, "MATCH <unspecified>", but since
SQL99 there's been a less awkward way to refer to the default style.

In addition to the code changes, pg_constraint.confmatchtype now stores
this match style as 's' (SIMPLE) rather than 'u' (UNSPECIFIED).  This
doesn't affect pg_dump or psql because they use pg_get_constraintdef()
to reconstruct foreign key definitions.  But other client-side code might
examine that column directly, so this change will have to be marked as
an incompatibility in the 9.3 release notes.

<!-- doc/src/sgml/README.links -->

Linking within SGML documents can be confusing, so here is a summary:


Intra-document Linking
----------------------

<xref>
	use to get chapter/section # from the title of the target
	link, or xreflabel if defined at the target; has no close tag
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/xref.html

<link>
	use to supply text for the link, requires </link>
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/link.html

linkend=
	controls the target of the link/xref, required

endterm=
	for <xref>, allows the text of the link/xref to be taken from a
	different link target title


External Linking
----------------

<ulink>
	like <link>, but uses a URL (not a document target);  requires
	</ulink>; if no text is specified, the URL appears as the link
	text
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/ulink.html

url=
	used by <ulink> to specify the URL, required


Guidelines
----------

o  If you want to supply text, use <link>, else <xref>
o  Do not use text with <ulink> so the URL appears in printed output
o  Specific nouns like GUC variables, SQL commands, and contrib modules
   usually have xreflabels
